Digital citizenship training
View more presentations from Claire Amos. I just wanted to share something I have
been working on - a resource for our Year 9 tutor teachers to provide some
Digital Citizenship training for our students. As always, feel free to use, adapt, ignore
at your leisure. Also any suggestions and/or feedback would
be appreciated!

Yesterday I did a presentation to our English dept about
ideas for integrating a range of ICTs in English, highlighting tools and strategies that supported
thinking, collaboration and differentiation. Although in an English context
there are many ideas that might be of interest to any curriculum area.
I have attached a link to the original PPT below which has several embedded videos and
links to the resources discussed, and above a video recording of
the presentation. Ideas for Using ICTs in English PPT - feel free to download and adapt if anything looks useful!
